Why Are Black People Alloud To Say The N Word But White People Arn't?

Question

Yet they can call us crackers?

Answer 1

-Political Correctness-
The 'N' word when originally used by whites was a derogatory remark againt a race of people.
When the 'N' word is used by a Bl;ack to another Black it loses its racist sting.
Vice versa applies when the "W" word is used.
As for the term 'cracker' I am afraid that the old addage applies "there is one rule for the majority and another rule for the minority"-

Answer 2

its so biased and dumb. i think if a word is offensive then no one no matter should say it. since when did people gain access to own words and others arent allowed to use them. there are words we dont speak of and it should be left at that. if one group is using it and another cant then its unfair and its not such a sensitive word anymore. i am upset that the "N" word is a big deal but black people can make fun of all other races and its "ok" no one will say anything. i just think that no one should take a stab at anyone elses race and we keep those out of our mouths. its not right to poke fun at all at any race. if its ok for a joke then black people cant get upset of someone makes a joke that involves saying the "N" word right?

Answer 3

when they say the the n word they dont mean it in a offensive way to the buddies they saying it to its like the term whats good dude.........as for crackers if the term bothers you tell them to plz not call you it becuase u find it offensive like them with the n word they understand 2007 we should get over this stupidity already

Answer 4

Because there is an inequality in racism. hence they may call us honkies without reprisal., which is insulting to a white person yet if we refer to black people as ******* which personally I would have no inclination to do we.re attacked as being racist, However we are two different races, one is Caucasion and one is *****. This is factual.

Answer 5

it's obviously...America... not in myspace, mean in my country origin, but we say in different intonation or accent. We even have places named after the word, locations are divided territories for Nothern and Southern N, then we have the aborigins from Africa as well, but no offensive on this matter.

Answer 6

I know. It doesn't make any sense. The truth is that most blacks wont admit is that we have more respect for them than their fellow blacks do.

Answer 7

No one is "Whiter" than me and I say N!gger all the time.
How do you figure white people cant say n!gger.
Just say it. It is easy and it is really fun
